PSP2, NGP, whatever you want to call it, we already knew that Sony’s next-gen handheld console would come with 3G. Heck, it’s right there on the official spec sheet. What we didn’t know is whether or not every PSP2, NGP, whatever you want to call it would have integrated 3G connectivity or if — like the iPad or Galaxy Tab — it would ship with two SKUs: one WiFi only, the other WiFi + 3G.

Now Sony Computer Entertainment Europe president Andrew House is setting the record straight: expect two SKUs.

“The first thing to clarify, which I’m not sure the presentation did a perfect job of doing today, is that all of the devices will have WiFi capability… while a separate SKY will have 3G.”

This is good news. For most gamers, it will keep the PSP2’s (or NGP’s, or whatever you want to call it… okay, we’re done with this joke now) price affordable without a contract, while also opening the door for network subsidization and — even better — access to Sony’s own new Android-basedPlayStation Suite app store.
